Time flies, and it is spring again in a blink of an eye.

The battle at the border is coming to an end. The Jin army not only drove the Qiang people out of Yunnan completely, but also drove them out of the border for five hundred miles due to the fight between Lian Jinghui and General Zhao.

The Qiang people fought very hard in this battle, and now they can't stop if they want to.No matter how regretful it is, it will not help. Greed makes them more ambitious after the first taste of the sweetness, and the victory blinds their eyes. Until today, seeing that the Jin army will continue to attack, the Qiang people are shocked and afraid. Only then did they truly understand the situation.

Half a month later, the Qiang people handed in the letter of surrender, and the imperial court quickly sent officials to negotiate peace, signed a series of unequal treaties, paid tribute every year and worshiped every year, and the war was completely over.

There was a celebration in Yunnan, and the news of our army's complete victory spread like flying to every corner of Dajin, and the next step was to reward meritorious deeds.

As a general of the Jin Dynasty, Lin Zhiyuan also wanted to return to Beijing with his teacher, but at this time, Lin Yixuan was about to give birth.

Lin's mother and Yang Yi were very worried. To be honest, they didn't want Lin Zhiyuan to return to Beijing. Life in Yunnan was very stable, and the situation in Beijing was unpredictable. Jing will be made things difficult in the future.

Lin Yixuan was also worried, how could the Jingyanghou Mansion easily let go of the elder brother's meritorious service this time, and they would definitely not give up if they didn't squeeze out the last bit of benefit from the elder brother.

Li Yaonan didn't want her husband to be troubled, so she smiled and gave him a bad idea: "That's not easy, since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety have been a dilemma, and my eldest brother should take retreat as his advance, and go to the emperor to complain."

Lin Yixuan's eyebrows moved, his eyes sparkled: "Tell me in detail."

Li Yaonan pointed to his own face, leaned in front of her husband, and said cheekily, "What's the benefit?"

Lin Yixuan kissed him, blushed, and said angrily, "I will compensate you for the rest."

The smile on Li Yaonan's lips gradually widened. It's been almost eight years since they got married, and his little husband is still so shy, which makes people love him. He didn't hide it immediately, and told his worries in detail.

General Zhao made more than one or two mistakes, but the emperor did not deal with it for a long time. Li Yaonan vaguely guessed that the emperor was trying to balance the government, and the Lian family army was too powerful. For the Lian family, the emperor is afraid that he won't feel at ease even when he sleeps.

Eldest brother was born in Jingyang Hou Mansion, and he is from the Lian family. If the emperor's doubts are not dispelled, there will always be future troubles. Li Yaonan has always believed in killing all threats in the bud and gambling with his own future. Only a fool would do stupid things.

Eldest brother is advancing by retreating, and he can kill two birds with one stone. One is to get rid of Jingyanghou Mansion, and the other is to leave a name in the emperor's heart. No matter what the future of the elder brother will be, at least the emperor will not be too defensive.

Lin Yixuan was in a cold sweat when he heard this, and the husband and wife discussed it together, and wrote a letter to the eldest brother that day, asking him to come to the house for a get-together.

Lin Zhiyuan is currently resting in Dali because he wants his teacher to return to the court. When he received a letter from his younger brother, he hurried over, thinking that his younger brother was about to give birth.

They discussed for a long time that day. When Lin Zhiyuan left, his expression was heavy. He was more worried than his younger brother. General Lian was his teacher. The relationship between them cannot be measured by interests. It's so bad, the current emperor is fine, but what about the next emperor, who can guarantee that the next emperor will still tolerate the power of the Lian family.

Lin Zhiyuan turned around and immediately found Lian Jinghui, the worry in his eyes was evident, and after talking about his various worries.Lian Jinghui sneered, looked at him with a half-smile, without any rudeness in his actions, and teased: "Xiao Linzi actually has eyes."

Lin Zhiyuan's face turned dark, when was he careless?

Lian Jinghui patted him on the shoulder, his eyes darkened: "Don't worry, the Lian family will be fine, and I will never allow the Lian family to have any problems."

Lin Zhiyuan was stunned, he was only worried if he dared to love, his political awareness was not high enough, otherwise he would not have let his younger brother marry absurdly, and his mother was forced to reconcile, even though his younger brother married the right person by mistake, Mother and Li will lead a more relaxed life in the future, but what if, what if the younger brother does not get married well, mother and Li will have no one to support him afterward, and he will be constrained by Jingyang Hou Mansion everywhere, so he dare not think about the next thing .

Lian Jinghui looked at him indifferently: "You just need to lead the army to fight, and don't worry about the rest. Brother Ling's plan is good. You really have to find a way to get rid of your big family, and it will not end well if you have the right and wrong."

"I see." Lin Zhiyuan's expression was indifferent, and he had some understanding in his heart. Looking at this familiar senior brother, he was not as brainless as the outside world rumored. If he was really brainless, how could he be in a high position? Even Lian's way of protecting himself was kept in the dark.

People say that the man in the Lian family is rude and the daughter is tough. Who knows if this is intentionally done for outsiders to see? No wonder the Lian family has never produced a scholar, even if they marry the daughter of a civil servant, the children born will never follow the path of a civil servant ,I see……

Lin Zhiyuan was completely relieved, and secretly thought about the matter in Beijing. After all, Master Lin San was his father. However, compared to his mother and cousin, he always had only one choice. As his brother said, anyway, his father has many children. One of him is not much, and one less of him is not less.

Lin Zhiyuan quickly made up his mind.

Two days later, the day came for the class teacher to return to court, and Lin Yixuan reluctantly bid farewell.

Lin Zhiyuan smiled to reassure his younger brother that he has his own sense of what matters in Beijing.

That afternoon, after dinner, Lin Yixuan was about to go for a walk in the garden when he suddenly felt a falling sensation in his abdomen, which caused cold sweat to break out on his forehead, and hurriedly supported the table.

"Father." Li Xu was the first to discover his situation, his little face turned white with nervousness. The last time his younger brother was born, even though he was still young, he had a particularly deep memory of the panic and fear at that time.

Li Yaonan's heart tightened, he was very familiar with Fulang's current situation, with the experience of the previous two times, this time he didn't seem so flustered, he ordered his servants to call Wen Po and boil hot water in an orderly manner, while he carefully carried Fulang into the delivery room .

Li Xu led his younger brother and followed closely behind his father, when he heard screams in the delivery room, his immature face showed a calmness that did not match his age.

Li Xi is very obedient, neither noisy nor disturbing, this little devil king of the world, as if he knows something, he quietly cuddles beside his brother.

After three hours, the baby's cry was finally heard in the delivery room.Wen Po's complexion was a little bad, and she pulled out a stiff smile: "Congratulations, master, the lord has given birth to twins."

"Okay! Reward!" Li Yaonan was in a happy mood, and rushed into the delivery room in three steps at a time.

The midwife breathed a sigh of relief, she was really afraid that Mrs. Li would not like it, and she had seen so many things in their field of midwifery. Many rich and noble families were unhappy after giving birth to twins, and there were even poorer families who had just given birth to their children. I just sold it, it's rare to see someone who likes Shuang'er like Mr. Li.

Li Yaonan was overjoyed, finally waiting for the long-awaited Shuang'er, looking at Shuang'er's small body, his heart softened, and from then on, Li Xu and Li Xi had another task of protecting their younger brother.

Lin Yixuan slept until the next day before waking up, and found out that the baby was a twin, and he was full of love and sorrow. Not every twin is as lucky as him. If the marriage is not good...

"Why are you frowning?" Li Yaonan asked with a smile. The more he looked at the child, the more he liked it. With all the advantages of him and Fu Lang, he must be beautiful when he grows up.

"It's okay." Lin Yixuan shook his head, the worry in his eyes dissipated, and he frowned and said, "I'm only worried about the child's future."

Li Yaonan chuckled, and immediately guessed what his husband was thinking, and said indifferently: "I will take it as a big deal, and I will promulgate a family rule tomorrow, but all children of the Li family who have no children after the age of 30 can take concubines, son-in-law Same as brother-in-law."

Lin Yixuan glanced at him, and said with a smile: "How can a child like you get married?"

Li Yaonan raised his eyebrows: "What's the matter with raising him for the rest of his life? In the future, there will be one more family rule. In addition to the dowry, the daughter and the twin will have an estate at birth, which can only be inherited by their own children. If you want to ask for my twin, if you don't have a lifetime With the determination of a couple, I would rather raise him for the rest of my life."

Lin Yixuan's eyes were soft, and his heart felt a little warm. He was so lucky to be married to her husband. He looked at the baby beside him lovingly: "Okay, let's raise him for the rest of his life."

The husband and wife talked for a while, and named the child Chen. Not long after, Lin Yixuan fell into a deep sleep.

Li Yaonan is not just talking about the family rules. In fact, he has thought about it for a long time. If a family wants to have a long history, it must not be possible without a set of rules and regulations. environment.

When Lin Zhiyuan returned to Beijing, the emperor rewarded him for his meritorious service and promoted him to be a third-rank commander.

Li Dusi was also promoted to the command envoy, and Wang Can general was promoted to the second-rank general soldier. Only Zhao Can general did not change. However, the emperor's reward or punishment is the best reward for him. Understand, the past is the past.

Lin Zhiyuan was silent in his heart. Although General Zhao is only a third-rank official, he has a deep foundation in Yunnan. Even if General Wang Shen is promoted to the general, it may take a lot of effort to gain real power. Perhaps this is the emperor's way of balancing .

But no matter how they fight, all things have nothing to do with him, as the brother said, he just needs to keep his duty, and the rest is up to him.

The only thing that bothers him now is Jingyanghou Mansion. As expected by his younger brother, when the news of his meritorious service came, the sanctimonious attitude of Jingyanghou Mansion was disgusting. Lin Zhiyuan couldn't figure out where they came from Confidence, I will obediently be a puppet.

Lin Zhiyuan listened to his father's talk with a blank expression, and thought to himself that it was time for the written memorial to be presented to the emperor, and he was impatient to continue playing around. He missed his cousin and his child.

"I don't agree. Yang Yi can be a concubine, but being a wife is simply delusional. He eats our food and drinks our food. The Hou Mansion raised him from a young age, and even seduced my son. It's better to raise him than a dog. Roll your eyes." Wolf."

Lin Zhiyuan looked at him indifferently, feeling bored in his heart: "Yang Yi is my husband, father be careful about his words."

"I don't agree. If you don't have my Lin family tree, you won't be my Lin family's daughter-in-law. The girl from the Zhou family is very nice. Your uncle has already agreed that she will be hired in a few days. Just stay at ease and don't imitate you." That brother is outrageous."

Lin Zhiyuan sneered. He knew his father was incompetent. Hearing these words, he still felt chills: "I won't marry. I want to marry you. I'll leave first."

"Presumptuous, presumptuous, you unfilial son." Master Lin San was furious.

Lin Zhiyuan didn't bother to look at him any more, and met his uncle right after he left the house.

"Zhiyuan, your father is also doing it for your own good. The girl from the Zhou family is really nice. If you really don't want to marry, uncle will push it for you. Why hurt the relationship between father and son?"

"Thank you, Uncle." Lin Zhiyuan thanked him, but there was no trace of emotion on his face.

"You child." The uncle was a little helpless, but also a little spoiled: "Okay, it's up to you, I will ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to help make a deal, if you don't marry, don't marry, but you can't offend others, another day You go and apologize."

"I won't go." Lin Zhiyuan didn't give in, he threw down the two words that were light and fluffy, and turned around to leave.

"You..." The uncle suddenly became angry, and stared at his back with hatred, he was indeed an unfilial son.

Lin Zhiyuan raised the corners of his lips mockingly, his uncle's methods were more than a star and a half better than his father's, and it seemed understandable that he had been deceived before, this place was so dirty and disgusting that he didn't want to stay for a while.
